Bikers and The County Council




Devon County Council recently put this and several signs like up along the Newton Road. Probably because they are fed up with having to scrape bikers and their bikes up of the road.
Personally I feel they should have gone for a more aggressive notice such as:-
Bikers, take care. You know car drivers are homicidal maniacs who will kill you at the drop of a hat. Especially if you

  1. Ride down the centre of the road at 70mph.
  2. Overtake in the face of oncoming traffic round blind bends.
  3. Overtake on the left using the cycle lane.
  4. Over take cars that are turning right.
  5. Have total disregarde for double white lines
    As the top right photo shows, not all bikers would need this warning and some just wouldn't heed it..

PS Torbay Council expect the Travellers on Brixham Park and Ride to be gone soon. They also say it is safe for motorists to use the Park and Ride.

See Duplicate bus for full story.
